Functional programming (函數式程式設計) 是一種已有六十年歷史的程式設計範式，為何現在變得越來越重要？這是因為隨著各種連網設備 (如行動裝置) 和雲端服務的普及，多程序透過網路交換訊息已成為常態，因此分散式系統的開發變得至關重要。分散式系統軟體開發的複雜性往往導致開發過程容易陷入混亂，程式碼盤根錯節難以除錯維護與擴展，成為揮之不去卻又不敢動的痛處。而 functional programming 的簡約風格因此受到廣泛關注。這種設計範式強調使用函式來構建應用程式，程式碼清晰又容易維護，亦能解決分散式系統多執行緒的問題。除了專門的函數式語言之外，Python、Java、JavaScript、C#、C++、Go 和 Rust 等知名語言的新版中，也因應趨勢增強了對 functional programming 的支援。只要建立了這種思維方式，你就可以應用在自己的程式語言中。市面上與 functional programming 相關的書籍 (主要為英文書) 通常由學者撰寫，內容偏重理論，而在大型實務專案經驗上顯得不足。這類書中的範例大多過於簡單，未能涉及實際軟體架構問題。與此相反，本書作者擁有二十年在產業界實際運用 functional programming 的經驗，從產業角度出發，旨在幫助那些在軟體工程實踐中遇到困難的工程師重新思考。即使你的目的不是分散式系統，學習 functional programming 的思維都能夠幫助你在撰寫任何程式時想得更周到。由於 functional programming 的特點 — 無 side effects（額外作用）和資料的不可變性 — 使得它非常適用於開發網路程式，在這種環境中，資料一致性和狀態管理是關鍵挑戰。本書透過 concurrency primitives（併發基本工具）實作、繪製時間線圖、分析並解決併發操作中的插緒問題，有效處理狀態變化和 bug，從而構建可靠的分散式系統程式。本書特色: ●作者從產業界的視角出發，旨在幫助那些陷入困境的軟體工程師，重新審視並採納 functional programming 程式設計方法。●為了更貼近軟體工程師的實際狀況，書中以廣泛熟知的 JavaScript 語言做示範。雖然 JavaScript 不是最理想的函數式語言，但這一點

「無論你想在程式設計面試中獲得優勢，想創造美麗的數學藝術，還是頑固地非得理解這個概念的有趣特性，這本書都將成為你深入遞迴這個兔子洞的指南（兔子洞裡還有兔子洞）。」遞迴程式設計技術可以產生優雅的程式解決方案，然而更常見的是，它讓程式設計師感到困惑。這並不代表程式設計師可以（或應該）忽略遞迴；儘管遞迴以具有挑戰性而聞名，但它是一個重要的電腦科學主題，並且可以對程式設計本身產生敏銳的洞察力。至少，了解遞迴可以幫助你順利通過程式設計工作面試。如果你是對電腦科學感興趣的學生，遞迴是你要理解許多流行演算法所必須克服的必要障礙。如果你是程式設計訓練營的畢業生或自學而成的程式設計師，並且順利跳過了更具理論性的電腦科學主題，但在「白板程式設計面試」中肯定還是會遇到遞迴問題。如果你是一位經驗豐富的軟體工程師，以前從未接觸過遞迴演算法，你可能會發現遞迴是你知識中一塊尷尬的缺口。❑ 本書目標讀者本書適合那些對遞迴演算法感到恐懼或感興趣的人。對於新手程式設計師或電腦科學系的大一新生來說，遞迴主題就像難以理解的黑魔法一樣。大多數遞迴課程都很難理解，使得這個主題不但讓人覺得挫敗，甚至令人心生恐懼。對於這些讀者來說，這本書的直接解釋和充足的例子應該能幫助他們最終理解這個主題。閱讀本書的唯一先決條件是具備 Python 或 JavaScript 程式語言的基本程式設計經驗，因為各章的程式碼範例使用了這兩種語言。本書的程式已被精簡到核心的基本結構； 如果你知道如何呼叫和建立函數，以及理解全域變數和局部變數之間的區別，那麼你就足以應付這些程式設計範例了。本書使用 Python 和 JavaScript 範例來教授遞迴的基礎知識，揭示了遞迴的教學方法，並闡明了所有遞迴演算法的基本原理。你將學習何時使用遞迴函數（最重要的是，何時不使用它們），如何實現工作面試中經常提到的經典遞迴演算法，以及遞迴技術如何幫助解決有關樹走訪、組合學等等許許多多的問題，以及其他棘手的話題。這個以專案為主的指南包含了完整的、可運行的程式，將能幫助你學習：☑︎ 遞迴函數如何使用呼叫堆疊，這是一種在遞迴課程中幾乎從未討論過的關鍵資料結構☑︎ 「頭尾」與「信仰飛躍」技巧如何簡化遞迴函數的編寫☑︎ 如何使用遞迴為你的檔案系統編寫自訂搜尋腳本、繪製碎形藝術、生成迷宮等☑︎ 優化和記憶如何使遞迴演算法更有效率
